# 1 Priority is Focusing on Home Loans for ‘Purchase’ transactions and offering excellent customer service to Buyer clients and Realtors. When you work with us, you will receive constant communication and updates through the process. Close of escrow dates are ‘sacred’. Closing on time or early is the only acceptable result when our team is working on your purchase transaction.

Technology & Professional Experience working together.

We’re in a day and age when customers demand technology and automation to make life easier. Customer expectation levels for technology to solve complex problems is increasing daily. Our team embraces technology daily, however we understand the reality of getting a mortgage processed through underwriting, approved, and closed on time requires the collaboration of technology and human effort. To get the job done right, you need a Realtor, Loan Officer, and Escrow Officer who all have experience solving problems.”
